no support, i dont believe it would be looked down upon to enter a raid(may not apply to operations) with a T4 or even T3 pvp weapon, and by doing so you can get a decent pve weapon. i got a pve staff from fos 3 my first time doing it and i was using a T2 pvp weapon i believe.

Pretty much this. Sometimes you have to use a weapon type that isn't your favorite for a while (although in some ways this is a good thing, since you get to try out other weapons and also learn how they work), but it seems quite rare to be deprived of a tier-appropriate weapon for very long at all.

I don't say the fact that the vendors don't sell PvE weapons is a problem. The "problem" mentionned in my previous post was the difference between weapon drops in PvE and PvP make a big difference and don't let them sell any PvE weps as they can drop in instances, while PvP weps can't. That's all.

I know... I actually made this thread because of an alt of mine, forced to use a rifle (for HL, I have nothing against rifle except that they dont offer the dps advantages melee weps do) cause its stats are better than any other weps I had til now on this alt. I try to find some other weps... but I can't find anything beating its stats... maybe cause this alt can't access T2 yet! I want at least the same wep styles, but another type of weapon. I love rifle, but... for a HL DPS? nope. And I was exploring a bit when I noticed there are PvP weps sold from every PvP vendor in the HoD, and I went directly to check if I can change my weapon with a PvE vendor. Can't. Forums->New thread-> why???

Since ya guys are talking about weapons. I have a question.
Currently I'm on item lvl 56 weapons (103.5 DPS). Then I look at dcuo-db to where I can get the next level of weapons and all I see it that lvl 62 weapons(113.1 DPS and up) can only be obtained by doing T3 and T4 raid bosses drops. Is that right?
Can I also get lvl 62 weapons from anywhere else? weekly reward boxes? alerts? duos?

Once your CR hits a certain point, the Central City vendors will start stocking 113.1 weapons as well as the 103.5 ones. They should be the same price as the 103.5's. Can't for the life of me remember what the CR rating is though. For some reason I've got it stuck in my head that its 65 but that could be wrong.
